Getting Hisense 43R7 43" 4K TV to Work at 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 Chroma & HDR as PC Monitor
I have been using a 32" 4K Monitor (HP Specter 32 Studio Display) for some time now, but have never been 100% happy with it because I had to set the scaling of text size to 125% in Windows 10 to make them readable. A 40 inch or larger screen would be much better since I would be able to set text at 100%. PC monitors of that size are usually at least $450 or more, but I've seen many 43 inch 4K TV's for less than half that price, and that many PC users have....

I have an older Logitech G11 keyboard plus a G13 Advanced Gameboard, and actually rely on the macros/shortcuts assigned to the G-Keys daily. Recently they all of a sudden stopped working, and it was a real pain to try and work around it, so I decided to try and solve the problem. The problem seemed to manifest itself after Windows 10 (with Creative Update) froze the other day and I had to restart without a proper shutdown.



Talk about an funky cool looking computer chassis- the new Lian Li PC-U6 Cowry Special Edition would be it, looking like a jet engine/snail shell from the side and a furnace from the front. The red LED kit adds the red glow. Too bad the case only comes in black because silver might look pretty nice as well. The made-in-Taiwan Lian Li PC-U6 Cowry Special Edition mid-tower aluminum case comes with the following specifications and features:
BenQ today launched the high-end BenQ SH960 1080P DLP Projector. Capable of an ultra-bright 5500 lumens, the new BenQ projector can deliver a bright image without the need for darkness in the room. Contrast ratio for the BenQ SH960 is rated at 3000:1, and the projector also offers a setting for you to prolong the SH960 lamp with a reduced brightness setting. Another nice feature is the ability of the SH960 to automatically adjust for non-white walls to still project a natural image.
IOGEAR today introduced an innovative product in the IOGEAR GUC2025H USB to HDMI adapter. With the IOGEAR GUC2025H you can take advantage of multiple monitors by simply using this adapter to connect to an existing HDTV via HDMI. No USB 3.0 required either- just an available USB 2.0 port on your laptop or desktop PC will do. Full HD resolution at 1920x1080 is support provided that your TV/monitor supports 1080P. What is interesting is that the GUC2025H also supports audio, so sound can also sent to the big screen. No word though on....
Athena Computer Power today powered up (pun intended!) the Athena AP-TFX35 80 Plus 350W Power Supply. At 350 Watts the Athena AP-TFX35 is not exactly designed for systems with power-hungry dedicated graphics cards, but for HTPCs and computers with integrated graphics or video cards that don't require dedicated power, this PSU should work just fine.
Super Talent today introduced the SuperTalent Express Duo 2-CH ST3U32E2CK, ST3U16E2CK and ST3U8E2CK USB 3.0 Flash Drives in 32GB, 16GB and 8GB capacities, respectively. The new drives are dual channel capable offering max transfer speeds of above 65 Megabytes/sec which certain rivals and exceeds the real-world transfer speed you see in today's 7200 RPM SATA 2.0 hard drives.
Sharp today took the wraps off of the Sharp MX-3610N, MX-3110N and MX-2610N Business Multi-Function Printers (MFP). The model numbers denote their speed in PPM- 36, 31 and 26, respectively. What's interesting about these new MFPs is a huge 10 inch touch screen LCD that supports gestures which presumably is faster and easier to do than to pick out buttons to press. 
So I had a nightmarish time getting the Silicon Image SIL3114 card to work with just one SATA drive. The opposite happened when I received the VIA VT6421 SATA card (2 SATA, 1 eSATA, & 1 IDE port), also purchased from eBay. After booting into XP and installing the latest drives from viaarena.com, the drive was immediately recognized and works. I guess the moral of the story is to avoid the SIL3114 and go with the VT6421 if you just want extra SATA ports and don't need RAID. The VT6421 card does RAID 0 and RAID 1, but....
Epson today launched the
VIA today powered up the VIA Eden X2 dual core CPU that is 64 bit and manufactured with the 40 nm process. VIA touts the new chip as fanless capable and has features such as virtualization and being socket compatible with the previous gen VIA processors such as the Eden and the C7. VIA didn't disclose any performance metrics or benchmarks of the Eden X2. It will be interesting to see how it stacks up against the current crop of Intel ATOM dual core chips. From the looks of it the Eden X2 will....
Matrox has launched the Matrox Extio F2208 KVM extender which lets you use two monitors (displayport or DVI) and provides 5 USB ports to control a computer up to 1 KM away. It comes with its own fiber optic PCIe interface card and supports resolutions of up to 2560x1600 and it can still do dual monitors.
LaCie has powered up the first external Thunderbolt hard drive in the
